Company Report

Narrow-Moat Alnylam's Positive Data in Vutrisiran ATTR-CM Trial Should Drive Strong Long-Term Growth

Alnylam Pharmaceuticals is a pioneer in designing therapeutics based on RNA interference, or RNAi, a mechanism that occurs naturally in cells and silences overexpressed genes, which often cause protein misfolding and/or protein accumulation. Alnylam seeks to capitalize on the therapeutic potential of RNAi by creating small interfering RNA, or siRNA, that can treat diseases at the genetic level. When siRNA reaches its intended target, it can silence the gene that it contains code for, making it a potentially game-changing technology for difficult- to-treat diseases caused by genetic mutations.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Alnylam's Nobel-prize-winning technology and massive intellectual property in RNA interference helped the firm create an entirely new class of therapeutics for difficult to treat diseases.

Bears

Alnylam's valuation rests on its ability to maintain six-figure pricing and payers' willingness to continue reimbursement, which could be affected by shifts in healthcare drug policy.

Company Profile

Alnylam Pharmaceuticals is a leader in the study of RNA interference (RNAi) therapeutics. RNAi is a naturally occurring biological pathway within cells for sequence-specific silencing and regulation of gene expression. Alnylam has five drugs on the market: Onpattro and Amvuttra for hATTR amyloidosis, Givlaari for acute hepatic porphyria, Oxlumo for primary hyperoxaluria type 1, and Leqvio for hypercholesterolemia. It also has several clinical programs across various therapeutic areas: genetic medicines; cardio-metabolic diseases; hepatic infectious diseases, and CNS/ocular diseases. Upfront fees from research partnerships have boosted Alnylam's cash levels, and the company stands to see additional milestones and royalties from drugs commercialized under collaboration partnerships.
